Blizzard, First Love and a Wife Who Finally Snaps novel Chapter 218

Selena's expression hardened, her usual gentleness gone. "Mrs. Reed, Aurelia City may be your Reed family's territory, but Oliver is the young master of the Blackwell family in Westbridge. He's precious. If anything happens to him, the Blackwell family will not let you off easy."

Isabel replied, "He's a five or six-year-old boy. What's going to happen from a little fall? Boys don't need to be raised so delicately."

Selena knew the woman in front of her was Isabel.

She was all too familiar with her.

She was truly lucky to be alive. To survive an explosion of that magnitude, one that offered almost no time to escape, was incredible.

Julian must have put in a lot of effort.

But since Isabel was denying her identity, she wouldn't expose her.

Although if Isabel's identity was revealed and she returned to Westbridge, she would be taken for investigation, and the crimes she committed would be pinned on Isabel.

But she couldn't gamble on the changes in Adrian and Oliver.

Back in Westbridge, she might not have a good opportunity to act.

But in Aurelia City or the Fiorhaven Principality, the Grey Zone could make a move.

Next time, she would make sure Isabel was dead for good.

"A child of the Blackwell family can't be compared to some wild child from the streets."

Selena stared at Isabel. "Besides, Oliver is already emotionally unstable. You should show him more patience."

Isabel laughed, her gaze cold. "He's causing me problems. Why should I be patient? If he weren't a child, I wouldn't let him off so easily for bullying my son."

Selena was about to say more, but Oliver pushed past her and grabbed Isabel's hand. "Mommy, I'm your son!"

Isabel pulled her hand back and checked the time.

She was getting tired of waiting.

Julian noticed and was about to say something when a police officer came over with the test results.

"Chief, they're here!"

The chief quickly took the report, took a photo of it, and sent it to Adrian.

The police asked Selena a few questions but ultimately decided not to entrust the child to her.

At first, they thought she was a relative, but Oliver seemed to reject her.

They decided to call Adrian to come and get him.

By the time Adrian's plane landed, it was already evening.

He was surprised to see Selena.

"What are you doing here?"

He had a lot to deal with and had specifically instructed Selena to stay put.

He had people in Aurelia City; there was no way he would have truly left Oliver alone.

More importantly, he didn't believe Isabel would actually ignore him.

"Adrian, don't be angry. I was just so worried about Oliver. It's a good thing I came to check. You have no idea how awful that Isabel Ashford was to him."
